If you had such a wondrous hat – where would you want it to take you? And what would you ask of it? You may enjoy looking at the illustrations and telling each other which place you would have liked to visit, who you would have wanted to meet, and which memento you would have liked to bring back with you.

Which beautiful places have you visited or would you like to visit? You may want to make a photo album or scrapbook filled with places close to home or far away, realistic or imaginary. You could even invite friends and family over, and ask them to tell you about where they born or the places they’d visited: Where are these places? Have you ever visited them in your dreams? What was it like there – was it hot or cold? Quiet or noisy? And… what was coming home like?

Playing the movement game: Cold – Hot, Wet – Dry

Make a large paper circle and divide it up into eight equal parts. Write the following in them: cold, hot, wet, dry, up, down, quiet, noisy. Take turns playing by rotating a pencil at the center of the circle and announcing the word it points to. The rest of the participants repeat the word out loud, and add its antonym (opposite): “wet” – “dry”. At each turn, go around the house looking for something cold, noisy or hot, and so on. During the next round, you could look for something that has two or more of these attributes.
